Welcome to the Diocese of the Northern Territory!

Bishop Greg Anderson

The Diocese of the Northern Territory is the youngest of the 23 dioceses (regions) of the Anglican Church of Australia.

The Diocese is responsible for the ministry of the Anglican Church across the whole of the Northern Territory. It comprises almost one fifth of the Australian landmass, over six times the size of Great Britain.

The total population of the Northern Territory is only about 230,000 people, 30% of whom are indigenous Australians.

From fifteen parish & ministry unit locations and through our community service and educational ministries we seek to live, share and engage our wider community with our Christian faith. Under God, and acknowledging the original custodians of this ancient land, we serve Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in remote, rural and urban communities across the vast area that is the Northern Territory.

You will always find a warm welcome in a Northern Territory Anglican Church.
